the euro bills have the position of the paper in the set of bills (I don't
know the word in english to designate the metal to print the bills)

Face Plate Check Number and Plate Quadrant Number and Position Letter. On the
$1 Bill, the first is the actual Plate Number, located in the lower right field
near the Secratary's signature, and the second identifies the Note's quadrant
and position on the sheet, and is located in the upper left field (with the
sole exception being on the Web Note).


This probably doesn't help... but I do have the code letters for the
various issuing banks.

National central bank Code letter
Belgium Z
Greece Y
Germany X
Spain V
France U
Ireland T
Italy S
Luxembourg ?
Netherlands P
Austria N
Portugal M
Finland L

Interesting eh?

Is it true? How many bills fits on each set?

Depends, I think. In this particular case (the ¤ 5 notes made by P =
Giesecke & Devrient) it should be six "columns" and ten "lines" per
sheet. Here is some more info (unofficial, in German) about those
printers codes:

(Not my page, and I don't know whether that information is actually
accurate.) Unfortunately the official website of the European Central
Bank is not very "talkative" when it comes to those codes ...

It is my understanding that:
Plate Position is
rows x columns rows columns
5€ 10 x 6 A-J 6
10€ 9 x 6 A-I 6
20€ 9 x 5 A-I 5
50€ 8 x 5 A-H 5
100€ 7 x 5 A-G 5
200€ 7 x 5 A-G 5
500€ 7 x 5 A-G 5
